Friday, March 2nd will mark the second installment of the Sippican Historical Society’s popular new program: Classic Film Fridays. One Friday each month, the Society presents a classic film and offers a discussion on its historical context or significance. March will feature the acclaimed Young Mr. Lincoln, starring Henry Fonda and directed by John Ford. The film depicts a decade in the early life of Abraham Lincoln, as he moves from a Kentucky cabin to Springfield, Illinois, to begin his law practice. Hosting the evening’s discussion will be Tabor faculty member and classic film buff, David Pierce. Future presentations will include Sunrise at Campobello on April 13th and Maytime on May 4th. Classic Film Fridays are held at the Marion Music Hall on Front Street and are offered free of charge to the public. Films begin at 7:00 p.m., and refreshments are available.
